Spellbooks from another branch of the same line - upgrade from 2nd level Black Mage to 3rd level Dark Mage. There is not so much difference between variations, but those who had "shadow" on their 2nd level, may take "shadow dance" on 3rd.generally, black mages are antipodes of loyalist white mages - they are mostly supporting units with abilities to slow opponents, or to heal allies, or to change times of Day around them (of course, they did all of this unlike white mages but in their own ''dark'' manner). They also able to inflict arcane damage, but it isn't very high and there is only one main offensive spell (unlike red or white mages who have a rich selection of such spells). that's funny but quite logically - black mages able to learn attack with backstab special (like some kind of assassins).

0.0.8 version of The Silver Age Era is released now! You can download it from 1.13 add-ons server.

Changelog:* Damage type of Captain (Royal Army) with crossbow was changed from pierce to impact (crossbow changed to bullet crossbow)* New attack icons and spellbook icons were added.* The units which were stolen by corpse thief special can't taking new levels now (they can upgrade to themselves only),* Bug of wrong work of somnific weapon special was fixed.* Bug with color of units under the influence of sleeped and dark mark statuses was fixed.

With this, you can say that MFNU faction is finished (we'll add attack animations and portraits for units, but it's just design, after all). From next version we'll begin work to create third faction - Blackwater Syndicate.
